Weaving Together Firdaria and Progressed Moon Phases

Learning astrological techniques is fun, but the magic really happens when you start to put different techniques together to answer big questions about your life. When you learn how to synthesize, astrology becomes like baking. An egg, a cup of flour, some sugar, and a leavening agent or two aren’t much to talk about on their own. Together, they make a cake. 

Recently, I was experimenting with Firdaria and progressed moon phases. Both techniques allow you to divide your life into chapters, and I was curious to see if looking at them side-by-side would illuminate anything for me. 

I created a chart with a chronological timeline in one column, the Firdaria chapters in another column, and my progressed moon phases in a third column. When the chart was put together, I was shocked by how clearly the dialog between them revealed a pattern in my life that I had been unable to see any other way. 

All my life, I’ve been fascinated by binaries. I’m shy saying this because binaries are controversial–and rightfully so. Binaries have traditionally been used to perpetuate stereotypes and lock people into identities and roles that don’t suit them. 

My society has been learning a lot in recent years about the damage the abuse of binaries has done. We are exploring ways of being that are between the extremes of binary or off spectrum line between them entirely. I think that path of exploration is exciting. 

At the same time, I love the contrast of opposites. I love the pleasant way my head hurts when I encounter a contradiction. I love stark contrasts and tension. I love dialectics. I love thesis, antithesis, synthesis. I love playing with these ideas while loving and respecting the ways that ideas and people don’t fit in neat little opposing boxes. 

Until now, I haven’t been able to find anything in my chart that explains my love of opposites. The closest I’ve been able to get to an explanation is my lonely IC in Libra. 

Libra is the sign of the autumn equinox. It is one of the seasons two signs where light and darkness balance on the knife-edge of equality. While Aries (Libra’s opposite) is balance tipping in the direction of light, Libra is the balance tipping in the direction of darkness. It is this relationship between light and dark that gives Libra and Aries their meaning.

It is at night that humans, as diurnal creatures, are most at risk. We are strongly visual creatures, and when our vision fails, we need others to help us navigate the world. This need for the other is the reason Libra is so strongly associated with relationships and compromise. Aries can roll over everything in its path. It is strong and getting stronger. it can charge ahead without considering other points of view or compromising its clarity of vision. When Aries encounters a contradiction, it picks a side and hits the other side with a stick. Libra has to stop and resolve it, and the resolution frequently involves compromises. 

While I’ve been coming around to the idea that the IC is vastly underrated lately, having the IC in Libra didn’t feel like enough to explain my love of opposites. For Libra, resolving tension is the necessary step on the way to peace. Peace is the ultimate goal. I like the heat of negotiation too much for my love of opposites to come from Libra.

When I saw my Firdaria chapters and my progressed lunations together, though, my love of opposites made sense because I was able to see that my love of binaries isn’t just a philosophical oddity. In the story of my life, as told when these two techniques are brought into dialog, the tension of opposites is one of the main themes. 

Firdaria is a very simple system. There are only two ways of dividing up a life. You are either on the moon path or the sun path. Whichever path you’re on determines your lesson plan in life. The progressed moon cycle introduces chaos into the system (as the moon always does), and it is in the moon’s chaos that creates the space for interesting things to happen. In my case, there is a clear relationship of opposites between the progressed lunations I am scheduled to experience and the lesson plan of my Firdaria.

The first time I experienced a progressed New Moon was at the end of my sun chapter. The lesson of the sun chapter is learning how to shine. Just as I was (metaphorically) preparing for my final exam in shining, I entered a dark night of the soul. I experienced depression for the first time, and I learned how to create a convincing smile through tears. 

In my 20s, I experienced my first Full Moon. My progressed moon was in Sagittarius while I was experiencing my Mercury chapter in Firdaria. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter. In traditional astrology, Mercury is debilitated there. The reason for this is because Jupiter and Mercury are opposites. Jupiter is the planet of wisdom, and Mercury is the planet of intelligence. 

If you’ve ever played Dungeons and Dragons, you know that wisdom and intelligence are two different ability scores. A person can have the intelligence to launch a rocket without the wisdom of knowing when and where to launch it. While you can be smart and wise at the same time, it is rare, and intelligence and wisdom usually come up with opposing answers to the same question.

Fundamental tensions between my Firdaria chapters and my progressed moon phases are scheduled to happen for the rest of my life. Right now, I’m going through a New Moon in Gemini during my moon chapter, and I’m learning why the heart and the mind have classically been seen as opposed in European philosophy. 

If I live long enough, I will explore the tension between expansion and contraction (Capricorn Full Moon during a Jupiter chapter), threat vs. safety (Cancer New Moon during a Mars chapter), and the individual and the group (Full Moon in Aquarius during a sun chapter).

With my love of opposites, the lesson plan that is created by this mixing of progressed moon phases and Firdaria seems custom-made for me. I don’t believe that we signed up for everything that happens to us in this life. I’ve seen too many horrible things to believe that is true, but the elegance of this system and how it plays so neatly with my love of opposites is the closest I’ve come to a real challenge to that belief. 

After I charted out the relationship between my progressed moon phases and my Firdaria chapters, I wondered if my results are an oddity of my personal astrology. I shared my findings with the members of the Narrative Astrology Lab on Discord and showed them how to replicate what I had done. 

So far, I’ve only had the opportunity to look at a few examples, but I haven’t seen an example of the progressed moon phase and Firdaria working together as clearly and consistently as they do in my chart. 

I doubt that I’m the only one with a pattern like this, though. So, if you chart out your progressed moon phases and Firdaria, let me know what you find. 

Interested in the experiment but need help looking for patterns? Let’s have tea and chat about it.

What is Firdaria?

Being a method of prediction of the Medieval Astrology, Firdaria draw an outline of a person's life. They associate different periods of life with different planets and thus define which theme will prevail during each of the periods.

The word Firdaria is plural for Firdar, and the latter, although comes to us from Persian Astrology, has the same Greek origin as the English word period. So basically, firdaria means periods of life..

LULA SURFA NA FIRDARIA - CICLO DO SOL TRAZ BRILHO E ÊXITO

[nany-coruja]

ECLIPSE PARCIAL DO SOL 15 de Fevereiro de 2018. Pontos importantes que vou deixar em destaque antes do texto: * O eclipse pode afetar os signos fixos caso haja somente planetas no terceiro decanato dos mesmos, sendo eles (Aquário, Leão, Escorpião e Touro) * O eclipse não abre portais trazendo mudanças mágicas * Os planetas e pontos que mais podem nos afetar são: (Lua, Sol, Asc, MC e Lote da Fortuna em signos fixos que devem estar no terceiro decanato) * Pode ser que o evento do eclipse não afete em nada na sua vida neste período, pois pode ser que os planetas envolvidos não estejam ativos agora no seu mapa. Hoje teremos o segundo eclipse do ano, desta vez será o eclipse parcial do Sol, que vai ocorrer no signo de Aquário a 27°07'50" precisamente às 19:05:12 (horário de verão/Brasília), parcialmente a Lua vai ocultar o Sol passando entre a Terra e o Sol. Ocorrendo também a lunação de Aquário. Novamente devemos ressaltar que os efeitos do eclipse afetam mais a nível coletivo do que a nível pessoal, afetam as grandes massas, principalmente onde ele estará visível. O eclipse de hoje será mais visível na América do Sul nos países: Argentina, Chile, Paraguai, Uruguai e no continente da Antártida. Já no Brasil, o fenômeno poderá ser visível somente no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, principalmente na capital, Porto Alegre. Para as pessoas que tem planetas pessoais no grau do eclipse 27°10'', no signo de Leão ou Aquário, Touro ou Escorpião (principalmente sendo luminares – Sol e Lua, Lote da Fortuna, ou pontos como Ascendente e MC), podem sentir essa energia do eclipse de forma mais intensa, e perceber que algumas devidas mudanças devem ser aceitas. Ainda mais um eclipse que afeta os signos fixos, sugerindo que devemos nos desapegar de certos hábitos/assuntos/pessoas ou situações de uma vez por todas. O que pode ocorrer é uma clareza mental trazida do passado, memórias que estavam registradas no subconsciente, que agora podem se concretizar na realidade do nosso consciente, tudo vai depender daquilo que você plantou no último eclipse do sol, que foi em agosto do ano passado. Há pessoas preocupadas com suas vidas e com seu estado de saúde seja mental ou físico, e há pessoas mais preocupadas com seus relacionamentos, depende de onde a sua mente está mais focada no momento. A preocupação pode ocorrer de eventos do passado por conta das ações que cometemos, que ficam mais claras agora, devido às consequências que estaremos mais conscientes que teremos que enfrentar, esta consciência nos causa preocupação e um pouco de ansiedade. As reações serão apenas resultado de suas próprias ações, se você maltratou o seu corpo por exemplo e tem o Ascendente perto do grau do eclipse, hoje vai sentir as dores aparecendo como aviso para você cuidar melhor do seu corpo e de sua mente. Outro exemplo, se você tem Sol e Lua em Aquário ou em Leão, no grau do eclipse, na casa 04, se você não cuida bem do seu lar e de sua família, terá problemas dentro do seu lar. Se for analisar bem a nível pessoal, veja a casa em que o eclipse terá efeito, e cuide melhor agora dos os assuntos desta casa astrológica. A visão deve ser alterada, juntando peças do passado, complementando com uma figura que formará um possível desenho do futuro. Pois a Lua nova marca também as ações que vamos começar a realizar agora, a Lua está disposta por Saturno, e o mesmo está em seu domicílio noturno, no signo de Capricórnio, e Saturno está nos termos de Mercúrio e Mercúrio está nos termos de Saturno, nos demandando uma responsabilidade mental, onde devemos purificar o que está podre e sujo dentro de nós, expurgando o que nos limita de forma negativa, ou seja; emoções, pensamentos e hábitos que são destrutivos devem ser destruídos, e este processo pode ser doloroso, pois pode haver hábitos e vícios que podem atrasar a purificação de nossa mente, corpo e alma. A quebra de hábitos vem com períodos de abstinência, o que pode causar ansiedade, medo e preocupação excessiva, mas isso deve ser combatido de frente se quisermos evoluir e seguir na direção de nossos objetivos com força e determinação. Caso você se sinta assim; A meditação, e a limpeza da alma e do astral do corpo, é o melhor caminho. O regente da lunação que é Saturno que se encontra nos termos de Mercúrio, e Mercúrio está nos termos de Saturno, isso demanda agora novos planejamentos para realizações que irão se concretizar no futuro, se você tiver pensamentos negativos e irresponsáveis, e não respeitar os limites cósmicos de nossa consciência, no futuro irá colher consequências negativas, tudo depende da linha do pensamento universal, podemos ver também que o planeta geracional que rege as grandes massas de comunicação, Urano está em sextil com o Sol, Lua e Mercúrio, (luminares e regentes mentais). É uma grande oportunidade para buscarmos uma expansão da mente para um plano mais evoluído onde os pensamentos devem ser mentalizados de maneira positiva, construindo uma realidade que vai mudar e melhorar a nossa visão de como enxergamos a nossa vida,o mundo e o universo. Mas isso depende de nós mesmos, o eclipse não abre portais com mudanças mágicas, na verdade ele só deixa mais nítido as portas que o universo abre e fecha para nós, e se tivermos consciência da porta que devemos fechar e daquela porta que devemos entrar ou abrir, e escolher o caminho certo, tudo vai sair como planejamos. Vênus também está em sextil com Saturno, nos abrindo portas para relacionamentos de longo prazo, seja no quesito amoroso ou a nível comercial/negócios. Mercúrio que está no termos de Saturno, está em quadratura com Júpiter e está combusto, sugerindo que devemos mudar e repensar nossas idéias, e evitar qualquer tipo de pensamento radical. O eclipse a nível pessoal, clareia o nosso subconsciente, através de lições e aprendizados, nos fazendo ficar mais atentos do que devemos evitar fazer novamente. Saturno que rege a lunação onde ocorre o eclipse, nos mostrará a realidade de maneira nua e crua, nos dando a consciência clara agora dos erros que não podemos mais cometer. Se há uma ferida, a energia que transgride de Aquário nos dará a oportunidade de curar. “Grandes lições e aprendizados são postos como livros abertos agora para a nossa visão consciente, basta lermos com atenção e não esquecermos quando formos colocados à prova pelo universo, no futuro”. Para concluir, devemos analisar sempre os trânsitos em correlação ao nosso mapa natal, analisar quais planetas que estão ativos em nosso mapa, pois o mapa natal é estático, pode ser que o evento do eclipse não afete em nada a sua vida neste momento, pois os principais planetas do eclipse podem não estar ativos, fora outras técnicas preditivas que devem ser levadas em consideração como revolução solar, firdaria e direções e etc...

A Tiny Universe’s Companion - Joy Usher

A Tiny Universe’s Companion Popular Techniques in Traditional Astrology Joy Usher Genre: Reference Price: $4.99 Publish Date: May 31, 2018 Publisher: Xlibris AU Seller: AuthorHouse A Tiny Universe's Companion accompanies A Tiny Universe, a textbook on astrology which is based on one version of the Birth-Chart of the Universe known as Thema Mundi. Companion expands on the fi rst book by exploring a number of techniques which were refined by astrologers several centuries ago, but have since lost their significance in modern times. Practices such as the division between day and night which creates the accidental dignity of Planetary Sect, and the forgotten rule of Contention (munakara) which warns of the danger of crossing boundaries, are both reminders of the impact of Sect on the seven original planets. A first century predictive system originating in Persia called Firdaria has been re-introduced in the past few years and is once more gaining in popularity. Firdaria relies heavily on the principles of Sect to direct the individual's lifespan via different planetary periods along with the sequencing of planets according to the Chaldean Order. This method is examined in detail in the final chapters of Companion using modernized interpretations of text from 1st Century astrologer Vettius Valens, and Johannes Schoener from the 16th Century C.E. Planets' rulership over the twelve houses is a cornerstone of traditional astrology's chart interpretation and a ruling planet's condition determines its success or failure in managing the aff airs of its house. Issues such as mediocre quality, troublesome relationships, poor placement, or lack of sight (aversion) suggest stress for the planet and indicate difficult repercussions in the areas of life for which the ruling planet is responsible. Patterns which normally lie unseen or dormant within the chart become animated through rulership, and with the reintroduction of lost models, the chart, and life on Earth once more become reflections of the larger Universe. http://bit.ly/2VWEbXi

Do you have any astrology resources?

my favorite chart maker is astrodienst, astro-seek.com has a lot of useful tools like a solar return calculator which conveniently does 10 years at once, also it can calculate more advanced charts like secondary progressions, distribution of the ascendant through the bounds, firdaria etc. the astrology podcast is good in general and has a few episodes on the planets, signs and houses that i think are a perfect introduction for a beginner. my favorite overall textbook is on the heavenly spheres by helena avelar, then i like benjamin dykes' books and audio workshops. i think his workshops in particular are a great value and basically every time i listen to one i come out with a new skill i can use for reading, whereas with books it's not always 1 to 1 like that.

Summer Time with the band Firdaria (ft. Theo from Sir Rejection)

[astrologerindialive-blog]

Another important feature of Vedic astrology has to be Dasha System. Dasharsare mainly known to be planetary periods, which are based on minutes and seconds at birth, moon sign, degree and more. Later, this same rule can be found in Persian Astrology, known to be “Firdar” or “Al-Firdaria.”

• Always remember that among all astrological systems, Indian astrology has the power to divide time to smallest section. That makes it more accurate than the rest.

• There are practically various forms of Dasha systems available. Among the lot, Vimshottari and Ashtottari are the major ones.

• After a certain period of time, it is Vimshottari, which takes over other Dasha systems.

• This system is solely based on the “trine aspects,” which generate energy. It helps in ruling the luck factor, making Vimshottari stand out among the crowd for predicting the good or bad times.
